‘Royale Belge sets a precedent for future heritage practices that integrate sustainability and historic preservation.’ - Dennis Pohl of the Flemish Architecture Institute

Congratulations to Bovenbouw Architectuur, Caruso St John and DDS+ on the selection of your project in the Architectuurboek Vlaanderen Nr 16.

In the run-up to the reconversion, we were engaged by the client to examine the feasibility of the intended interventions. Our study focused on determining which parts of the building could be reused to meet current fire safety and energy regulations and material standards.

Proud that our reuse study was able to make a difference here.

The Royale Belge project highlights the potential of adaptive reuse to retain stored energy, reduce environmental impact and preserve cultural heritage.
